Dreamlog

Without any warning, a music video drops, and it's the kind of thing you put on when you want to zone out for a few minutes and just let visuals wash over you. Dreamlog is a 2025 original animated music video for Pocky's track of the same name, and if you're into the intersection of animation and music where neither one is really secondary to the other, this is worth your time. There's no plot to spoil here — it's pure audiovisual mood. Think of it less as something you watch for story and more as something you experience, the way you'd sit through a gorgeous AMV except this one was actually built from the ground up to match the song. The animation and the music feed into each other in that dreamy, half-awake way the title suggests, like scrolling through memories that aren't quite yours. If you liked Interstella 5555 for how it turned an entire Daft Punk album into a seamless visual journey, or if you've ever gotten lost in the short films from Genius Party where each piece has its own distinct rhythm and aesthetic, Dreamlog hits a similar nerve on a smaller scale. It's one episode, a few minutes of your life, and it's the kind of thing that sits with you longer than you'd expect. Good headphones recommended.
